Request for Non-Substantive Change to the 2020 Census Local Update of Census Addresses Operation (LUCA)

OMB Control No. 0607-0994

U.S. Department of Commerce

U.S. Census Bureau



Purpose


The 2020 Census Local Update of Census Addresses operation (LUCA) is the only opportunity offered to tribal, state, and local governments to review and comment on the U.S. Census Bureau's residential address list for their jurisdiction prior to the 2020 Census. The Census Bureau relies on a complete and accurate address list to reach every living quarter and associated population for inclusion in the census. The Census Address List Improvement Act of 1994 (Public Law 103-430) authorizes LUCA.


Background


The 2020 Census LUCA information collection was approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on 12/15/2016. This non-substantive change request is to communicate with groups of partners by email and/or letter, to add the Puerto Rico specific version of the D-2011(SP) Inventory Return Form to the LUCA package materials, and to submit a revised copy of the Respondent Guide for Puerto Rico.


The Census Bureau will need to contact groups of partners through the LUCA review phase to notify them of issues and clarifications related to Census Bureau provided materials and software that may impact their review. As the review phase is time limited, the Census Bureau is requesting authorization to send emails and/or letters to groups of partners to document issues and provide additional instruction. At the end of the review phase, the Census Bureau will supply documentation of all messages that were sent to groups of partners related to these possible issues.


The Census Bureau made updates and corrections to the Puerto Rico digital respondent guide, including updating the dates that Puerto Rico LUCA participants receive their materials from February-April 2018 to May-June 2018. The date change is necessary because of the natural disasters that impacted Puerto Rico and their ability to participate in LUCA. Officials in Puerto Rico and the Department of Commerce were consulted in late 2017, and a May-June 2018 delivery of materials to Puerto Rico was agreed upon. Other changes include corrections to field names and field lengths due to programming changes necessary to accommodate Puerto Rico addresses and other edits for clarification.


There is no substantive change to the program resulting from this change.


Burden


The burden of the 2020 Census LUCA is unchanged by this update.
